Bloodshot is not drama. It's Action and Sci-fi and sci-fi are not realistic. But what ruined it is wack storyline. Minority Report is action and sci-fi but an innovative plot. So, I don't see why action can't have a dope plot. I have no problem with actions having no solid plot, all I'm saying is, I won't give Extraction a very high rating based on the actions alone.

7/10 is not a bad rating for it, but I don't think I'll give Extraction anything more than 6.5/10

Well, not trying to push things forward, after all, it's your opinion & you're sure entitled to one.
About the Drama, it's on IMDb listing.

Extraction had the following
-action
-gore
-good cinematography
-suspense (nail-biting escapes by thor and the boy)
boy)
-God acting by Hemsworth



How does gore make a movie very good? Haven't you seen movies with more gore than sensible plots and ended being universally condemned?

Cinematography is on point. I agree. But I don't know where the suspense came from. I for one was never in suspense having seen the intro and knowing what was probably going to play out in the end.

God acting? Lol. Clive Owen gave me better action in Shoot 'Em Up and wasn't said to have reach god acting level. Unless you mean good acting which I agree that Chris delivered in his role.

Don't get me wrong, Extraction is a good movie, but it's nothing really very special that really kept me at the edge of my seat or left me wowing.

I'm really shocked that IMdb categorized Bloodshot under drama. WTF? Maybe I don't know what drama means again.

The Great Debaters and Mudbound are classic examples of drama movies, I wonder what they have in common with Bloodshot that's action, sci-fi and superhero genre.

Good acting. It was a typo. I meant "good acting".

There was suspense. The car chase. The building fight and chase scenes. Come on...dont be a hater.

Lolz.. Before i see a movie, I get myself acquainted with it's genres.
I did same for Bloodshot, i was cognizant of its genres as categorized by IMDb before seeing the movie, but after seeing it, i was confused, cause the Drama wasn't there. So, i attributed it's wacky plot to the absence of the Drama genre.

It is not surprising.Nigerians generally gravitate towards movies with lots of action sequences and little plot which is basically what Extraction is

Not only Nigerians, am sure you know that.

Extraction 3/10

Most shitty movie I've seen in a long time.

You don't get to just shooting in movies with story of zero sense.

So the state - na city dey call it sef, has no governor and law. One asshole just shut down the whole city just to recapture a boy he kidnapped. Son of a convicted felon. So many annoying scenes in the movie.

I guess they only wanted to show us how dirty n disorganize a place in India looks.

Hitman: Agent Jun (Korean) 9/10.

I had to suppress my laughter when I watched it cos it was midnight.

Action plus comedy. It's not something you could guess like extraction.

I need to add few Korean movies to my list. Anybody care to help me.

Nope. It's American.

It's the two part movie(2nd part) for Flags of Our Fathers narrating the World War 2 from a Japanese point of view.

Flags of Our Fathers was the American viewpoint.

If you're familiar with Japanese you would have known from the name.

If Extraction is 3/10, what then will you give Bloodshot? Bloodshot would be -3/10.

He didn't shot down the entire city, the movie was about an area in the city controlled by the drug lord. The entire city or state wasn't in play. Have you seen an area of a city being controlled by drug lords in real life? Those drug lords have the police in their pockets and the governors can't do shît. Go watch Narcos and other drug related series or movies. Besides, the movie is fiction, don't expect such to happen in reality.

And it wasn't him alone. He had sidekicks that helped him. Even recruited the chief security of the drug lord he went to extract his son. The movie is not perfect but 3/10 is an overkill. If we scrutinize the movies you've given 9/10, we end up trashing them.

LMAO, seems you've been captured by the American propaganda and hypnotization programme. I think you might want to change that word 'Savior' to EXPLOITER. Seems you are hooked by the American media — CNN, MSNBC, Fox etc.

The same US that caused this terrorism shit_ the world is facing now. With their supposed Iraqi WMD's. Fun fact is the Present Saudi Crown Prince said in an interview few years ago that USA asked them to promote radical wahabism around the region(and the world), but no major American media train eg BBC CNN etc didn't air that interview, it was swept under the carpet like it never happened including other big Western media, only Al Jazeera I think picked it up. This same trigger happy media that loves reporting propaganda narratives.

The Yankees help only when it's beneficial. Same way this peeps are panicking shitless when they hear for the first time China is ahead of them in a major future Tech— 5G. That's why they slam Huawei with stupid bans and begging NATO allies to refuse their tech, funny thing is they(US) are behind schedule. Screaming blue murder— "Huawei is a national security risk". cheesy

The people I might be calling the TRUE SAVIOR this Century might be China. grin
